Chapter Ninety-Five: Between Gains and Losses (Part II)
Zhang Chun did not get angry as everyone was frightened, but slowly raised his head to stare at the blue sky, let out a long sigh, waved his hand to the rider who had been kneeling under the stage, silently raised his steps and walked down the high platform, and walked into the handsome tent in the west very lonely.
Wang Zheng, who had returned to his soul, took the initiative to take on the task of overall command, and after a burst of hoarseness, the frightened more than 10,000 soldiers closed the door tightly, put on a stubborn posture, and stared at the thousands of Langya cavalry rumbling from the east one by one, only to feel that their throats were tight, and their hearts were beating faster.
Who knew that the Langya cavalry rushed to a distance of five hundred paces from the camp and stopped, and under the gaze of tens of thousands of pairs of frightened eyes, they dismounted one by one, took out the water bags on the horseback, and drank water leisurely.
In the tent of the commander of the battalion, Zhang Chun waved away the deputy general who sent the Langya Army to persuade him to surrender, made a vigilant gesture to the personal guard, and turned his head to stare at the young literati who bowed his head and drank water opposite: "Fourth brother, the foolish brother lost, he lost very badly, regretted not listening to the advice of the fourth brother, and underestimated Liu Zijian, who was extremely brave and brave, fourth brother, I ...... in my heart Shame on you! ”
The young man shook his head: "The eldest brother has done his best, if he hadn't been dragged down by more than 10,000 injured and sick brothers, with the stability of the eldest brother, he would not have made this risky move!" In fact, not to mention the eldest brother, the foolish brother is so familiar with Liu Zijian, he can't even see through him, and he didn't expect that after he dealt with it in a dignified manner, he suddenly made strange tricks one after another, and the tricks were ruthless, this person ...... What a genius this man is! ”
Zhang Chun's face turned pale, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times without warning, and he asked with difficulty: "Fourth brother, do you think that the foolish brother can still see the sun tomorrow?" ”
The young man looked up to the sky and sighed, slowly stood up and shook off his big sleeves, and gave a deep salute to Zhang Chun, whose eyes were moist and desperate: "Big brother, if you can hold out for two days, help will definitely come, but it's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes!" Alas...... It's okay! The younger brother believes that as long as Liu Zijian sees the younger brother, he will no longer have the heart to kill the eldest brother, but the dozens of carts of money behind the account are afraid to be sent out to buy a way to live, everyone knows Liu Zijian's generous pension to the soldiers under his command, and he also killed and injured more than 20,000 people in this battle! ”
Zhang Chun stood up suddenly, took a step back and saluted deeply, choked for a long time before he could speak: "Fourth brother, please!" You must live well, even if you die, you must let the foolish brother die, if the foolish brother's head can be exchanged for the lives of the brothers, the foolish brother can also laugh at Jiuquan! ”
The young man couldn't help but cry like rain, he covered his face with his big sleeves for a while before rearranging his appearance, waving his hand to Zhang Chun, who was in tears, and striding out of the tent with a deep breath.
Under the big tree three miles southeast of the barracks, Liu Cun and the generals discussed in a low voice around the map, and suddenly heard the personal guard report that Zhang Chun had sent an envoy, Liu Cun immediately said that he had an invitation, and then turned to Tai Shici and Xu Sheng and others in Lehaha: "I don't know if the sent is Wang Zheng, a famous man who can speak well." ”
"It may also be the great Confucian Zhang Lin of Liaoxi, I heard that this former Yuyang Taishou was a prodigy who could speak well when he was a child." For more than a month, Fu Min, who had worked intelligence, said with a smile.
When the guards brought the envoy here, Liu Cun was so shocked that he almost jumped up, stepped forward and grabbed the hands of the person who came, and asked in disbelief: "Brother Wen Xuanxian, why are you ......?"
Gongsun Min smiled sadly, and slowly withdrew his hand and saluted deeply: "Brother, little brother can't stand you!" I'm sorry for the brothers in Langya! ”
Tai Shici, Xu Sheng and others were deeply shocked, staring at the eldest son of the Jizhou Gongsun family, who had often come to Liu Cun's house to drink in the past two years, with a look of disbelief.
Liu Cun's face changed abruptly, and he asked sharply, "Did Zhang Chun detain Brother Xian's family?" ”
Gongsun Min shook his head and smiled bitterly: "No, the younger brother's family is fine, more than 300 people of all ages, young and old, have all moved to Xiangping (now Liaoyang) in Liaodong to settle down. ”
Liu Cun sighed dejectedly, and only after a while did he face Gongsun Min who was full of guilt: "Brother Xian, say whatever you want, as long as the foolish brother can do it, he will never refuse." ”
Gongsun Min's tears gushed out, and he knelt down with a "poof", and crawled on the ground and cried. Liu Cun squatted down and persuaded for a long time before he stopped crying and raised his head, but he still knelt upright.
Liu Cun realized something, ordered the guards to set up a guard within fifty steps, left Tai Shici, Xu Sheng and Fu Min who were about to leave, and whispered to Gongsun Min, who was still sobbing: "Don't blame the virtuous brother, Ziyi, Wen Xiang, and Xiaohe are all my Liu Cun's life and death brothers, there is nothing that can't be said to them, and the virtuous brother has anything to say." ”
Gongsun Min raised his head, glanced at the three Tai Shi Ci who were extremely proud, sighed faintly and said the previous conditions, and finally took the initiative to promise that within a year, his family caravan would compensate Liu Cun for another 5,000 war horses.
Liu Cun didn't refuse, and there was no joy on his face about getting a huge amount of money, he just nodded and asked with concern: "What else does the foolish brother need to do?" ”
"Brother, the younger brother is already content!" Gongsun Min was deeply moved.
Liu Cun thought for a while and suggested: "If it's inconvenient, leave the wounded behind, Brother Fool quietly sent to the city of Tatecheng at the mouth of the big river in the east to treat and recuperate, a new city has been built there, and the bay wharf in the southeast is about to be repaired, it belongs to my Langya Water Army, hundreds of families have moved to Linji, there are no outsiders, not afraid of leaking the news, and when those brothers are injured, even if they leave, it doesn't matter if they are hostile again in the future, you know the temper of Brother Fool, I don't care about these things." ”
Gongsun Min's tears burst out of his eyes again, he prostrate on the ground and kowtowed three times in a row, stood up tremblingly under Liu Cun's support, bowed to Tai Shici and the three of them one by one, turned around and strode towards Zhang Chun's camp.
Tai Shi Ci and the three of them watched Gongsun Min's emaciated back gradually disappear, and they sighed one by one, and they didn't expect it to be like this.
Xu Sheng let out a long breath and asked Liu Cun in a low voice: "Lord, how to deal with the aftermath?" ”
Liu Cun smiled bitterly: "Legend has it that Zhang Chun has the demeanor of a person who is a tragic singer of Yan Zhao, so I believe that he will make the right choice that is most beneficial to both parties." ”
Xu Sheng admired Liu Cun's leniency: "Lord, what your subordinates have learned today will definitely be useful for a lifetime!" ”
Liu Cun patted his arm: "Wen Xiang has always been reassuring!" I am not the only one who says this, but also Mr. Botao and Mr. Yande. ”
Xu Sheng was moved, but he couldn't say a word of thanks.
Tai Shi Ci laughed, waved the horsewhip in his hand and beat the armor on his legs: "I don't know if I can party with Gongsun Wenxuan, who drinks and cheats, this guy secretly did such a big thing, it's really unseemly!" ”
"It is estimated that this kid believes that Zhang Ju can be the emperor." Fu Min suddenly said this, which made Tai Shici and Xu Sheng laugh.
Liu Cun didn't laugh, he told the three generals very solemnly: "Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's approach is very ridiculous in our eyes, but don't forget, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju are both people who have been too guarded, and there is a Jizhou assassin Wang Fen is also like this, there will be more and more such people and things in the future, because the world has been chaotic, the loyal ministers in the eyes of the world before are likely to become traitors, and the people who were full of righteousness in the world before are likely to do the most despicable things, so we can't look at all kinds of things that happen now or in the future with old eyes. For example, Gongsun Min, who of us would have thought that he would embark on this path before? ”
Tai Shi Ci and Xu Sheng immediately put away their smiles and couldn't help but look at Zhang Chun's camp, and Fu Min also showed a contemplative look on his face.
